Clin Genet. 1986 Mar;29(3):241-5. doi: 10.1111/j.1399-0004.1986.tb00818.x.

Abstract

The nature and the origin of a supernumerary marker chromosome in a mentally retarded boy were determined by various staining techniques on metaphase chromosomes and by GBG high resolution technique. The karyotype was found to be 47,XY, + inv dup(15) (pter----q13: :q13----pter) and the supernumerary chromosome was of maternal origin.
